I just got my engine flush with the tranny but dont have all the bolts in yet. It has been so long I have no idea exactly where they go... I searched and found some info but if anyone had pictures or detailed info please let me know.

The bolts I have...

1x Longest bolt (for the starter I believe)
1x 2nd to longest (the recessed location under the starter... this one I have tightened)
1x Short bolt with a taper on the non-threaded spot (not sure)
3x Short bolts (they look the same to me... I have them tightened - 2 on the top and 1 on the bottom of the turbo side)

Thanks,
Chris

1x Short bolt with a taper on the non-threaded spot (not sure) BOTTOM STARTER BOLT
3x Short bolts (they look the same to me... I have them tightened - 2 on the top and 1 on the bottom of the turbo side) CORRECT

You should have 1 more short bolt that goes about 4 inches above the starter. there are 3 up top, the others being at approx 12 o'clock, and 2 o'clock

 

Thanks man, thats exactly what I was thinking... I just need to find that other bolt. I knew the hole was there but the tapered bolt wasn't threading and I wasn't trying to force it.

It should be exactly the same as the other 3 short ones right?

Isn't there a loop for a engine hoist that goes on one of those bolts at 12 or 2? or do I even need to worry about that?
